Garry Dean - Tampa, FL - 1996 Black Acura NSX severe scratch removal - PICS

Garry Dean

Garry Dean Quality!
I detailed this NSX last week and I did shoot a video, but I was looking through my phone and saw these pics I had taken. I thought I would share.



This scratch removal project was the perfect situation because my client told me to do what I could. He planned to have the bumper repainted if I couldnt fix the scratches. So, I was pretty much free to burn if I went too deep and it wouldnt matter.



I really worked hard on this one. It really means a lot to me that I was able to preserve the factory paint for my client and retain some of the resale value of his fantastic car.

I started the sanding process with Meguiars Unigrit 2500. That didnt work out so well so I stepped it up to 2000... That wasnt doing much either so I busted out the 3M 1000.

Now we were in business! After I carefully sanded out all but just a couple of nasty spots it was time to back out. I followed the 1000 with 1500, 2000, then finally 2500 grit and polished out the sanding scratches with M101.

It turned out really nice and my client was ecstatic!



Thanks for looking!

Those scratches look like a bad dog's work.



Something flew up while he was screaming down the interstate...
